On this day 50 years ago, Mark Spitz broke the 200 butterfly World Record with a 2:00.70 narrowly missing the 2024 U.S. Olympic Trials cut of 2:00.49
No cap, no goggles, no tech suit...just a big ol mustache 👨
I can’t believe it’s been 50 years. I’m so humbled and honored they were able to capture my journey in this remarkable documentary. Take a look below! 🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇

MY IOC PROPOSAL: Sports icon Mark Spitz shares his Olympic blueprint to save Tokyo Games thesun.co.uk/sport/13858821/…
.@katieledecky laid down the first challenge. Hey @caelebdressel I know you will be breaking records at the Tokyo #Olympics but let’s see your butterfly with the cup.
Incredible, there was a time I couldn’t even swim that far. We go back a long way Bob. We met in 1968 and I cherish our friendship since then.
Simply incredible👏
In 1968 Bob Beamon broke the Olympic long jump record by 78cm.
His Olympic record of 8.90m still stands 52 years later.

Olympian Mark Spitz is even more health conscious now than he was while breaking records in the pool. #AFib @markspitzusa @AliveCor @arenaUSA buff.ly/3bUJY4J

Thank you to @ConsiderableHQ for chronicling my journey with AFib! The more we talk about heart health, the better we can learn to manage it. For me, it comes down to three key areas: medication, lifestyle changes & tracking with @AliveCor's KardiaMobile.
